Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

protein C betrixaban

Applies to: protein c and betrixaban

MONITOR: Simultaneous administration of protein C concentrate with tissue plasminogen activators and/or anticoagulants may increase the risk of bleeding. The mechanism of interaction is unknown. Several bleeding episodes have been observed in clinical studies of protein C concentrate for which concurrent anticoagulant medication may have been responsible. However, a contributory effect by protein C cannot be completely ruled out.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if protein C concentrate is used in combination with tissue plasminogen activators and/or anticoagulants. Close clinical and laboratory observation for hematologic complications is recommended. Patients should be advised to promptly report any signs of bleeding to their doctor, including pain, swelling, headache, dizziness, weakness, prolonged bleeding from cuts, increased menstrual flow, vaginal bleeding, nosebleeds, bleeding of gums from brushing, unusual bleeding or bruising, red or brown urine, or red or black stools.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

betrixaban food

Applies to: betrixaban

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food reduces the oral bioavailability of betrixaban. When administered with a low-fat (900 calories; 20% fat) or high-fat (900 calories; 60% fat) meal, betrixaban peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased relative to administration in the fasting state by an average of 70% and 61%, respectively, with the low-fat meal and 50% and 48%, respectively, with the high-fat meal. The effect of food on betrixaban pharmacokinetics could be observed for up to 6 hours after meal intake.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer recommends taking betrixaban at the same time each day with food.

Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
